Where Should I Buy or Invest in Florida?

Written by Posted On Monday, 04 March 2019 12:06

For most people who choose to buy a Florida home, they already have a relationship or experience of where they want to buy. Or they have a close friend or family member who has this experience and is able to advise them on the strengths of the area. features. For other people who are looking for a real estate investment, that they will not use as a holiday home throughout the year, and will not rent the building to vacationers, the location is less important and the return on investment alone determines the choice of the building.

For each person, the factors behind the purchase are different, and these factors will ultimately determine the location of the property. Our agents are experts who help buyers navigate between the delicate price / location, investment / lifestyle issues.

At South Florida real estate investment, we firmly believe that if you buy a vacation home, you must make your choice primarily based on lifestyle and buy the best location you can afford that offers the desired lifestyle.

Here is a brief summary of the Florida regions and their differences:

Northwest Florida

Prices tend to be lower in the north, which is further away from the huge tourist areas and attractions. This may not be the best investment for a rental return, but as a vacation home and lifestyle choice, it remains a great place to buy and a winner for those looking for a calmer lifestyle and more soft.

Southeastern Florida:

Another general generalization, the southeast Atlantic coast, including Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach to Orlando, tends to be generally more expensive than the southwest coast of the Gulf. This stretch includes some of the most expensive residences in the United States, with multi-million dollar homes pushing up the median home prices.

However, if you choose your region wisely, far from the ultra-rich enclaves of Palm Beach, it is still possible to get a three-bedroom single family home with a pool for approximately $ 250,000. In South Florida, market returns are lower, ranging from 6 to 10%, but appreciation and prices are much higher. However, it depends on investors' appetite for risk and investment objectives.

The Miami real estate market is really a law in itself. Typical apartment prices start at around $ 300,000, which is not necessarily onerous for one of the world's busiest cities and all that the city has to offer.

In fact, Miami is perhaps the only place that has rebounded faster, with an influx of buyers from Latin America. Stocks are now quite low, which means that prices are only going in one direction. However, it is still possible to conclude contracts on condos, because this market has experienced an economic boom in the construction sector and therefore has the largest stock available.

Northeast and Central Florida:

Disney's, Universal's and Sea World's great attractions are concentrated around the center of the state and we believe that the significant tourism potential of these areas helps maintain high prices, but also offers tremendous potential for tourism rental revenue. . just.

According to Shalimar Santiago, CEO of Investors Adviser's Network, Central Florida is currently the most popular market, from Orlando to the Tampa area, with returns averaging 8 to 12%.

Southwest Florida:

Prices are slightly lower than those in the southeast. A strong rental potential in summer comes from Europeans and Americans during summer school holidays. In terms of lifestyle, this coastline is fabulous and has some of the most beautiful beaches in the country. This has helped push up the price of real estate on the waterfront - which can be more than double the price of comparable properties in the Orlando area, and can explain why 60% of the richest people the country winter in Palm Beach on the southeast Atlantic coast.
